It's in the shape of the Odal Rune. The rune was worn on the collar of the 7th SS Volunteer Mountain Division Prinz Eugen and the 23rd SS Volunteer Panzer Grenadier Division Nederland, as well as the SS-Rasse- und Siedlungshauptamt, which was responsible for maintaining the racial purity of the SS.
More Nazi symbolism, right there in the open if you know what you're looking at. Disgusting.

This symbolism is so in-your-face and damning.
There were a number of fascist flags and other symbols floating around outside the Capitol on Jan 6th. Strangely, only photographs with them in the periphery were played in the mass media.

Subliminally - we are being bombarded with such symbolism on a day to day basis.
For some of us - we don't notice such symbolism - and for others it's like and inside message/communication to insurrection.
I just don't understand those people that are out there to destroy this country. What do they stand to gain if they are successful?
Here we are faced with this pandemic and trying to fight our way back into normalcy and there are others that want to create a new and even more destructive normalcy than this awful pandemic.

The Repugnants did this to themselves.
